Getting your first telescope should feel exciting, not frustrating. If I avoid a few common beginner mistakes, I can turn ...

The Sun has captivated humanity for millennia. And yet, despite being our closest star, studying it is not easy. Its blinding ...

diffpy.morph is a Python software package designed to increase the insight researchers can obtain from measured data including diffraction data and atomic pair distribution functions (PDFs) in a model ...

Abstract: Nondiffracting beams have brought exciting opportunities to control ultra-fast laser processing of transparent materials. This tutorial will review the basics of non-diffracting beams, their ...

X-ray crystallography is a technique used to reveal how the atoms of crystalline solids are arranged, relying upon the diffraction of X-ray radiation by the periodic atomic structure. Its continual ...

Abstract: Metasurfaces have attracted extensive attention due to their excellent capabilities in wavefront manipulation. However, chromatic aberration, which is widely present in phase-modulated ...

RECENTLY diffraction patterns have been produced in this laboratory1 by using ultrasonic waves of frequencies higher than 100 Mc./sec. At such high frequencies, the patterns show some interesting ...

Iris is both a library for interacting with ultrafast electron diffraction data, as well as a GUI frontend for interactively exploring this data. Iris also includes a plug-in manager so that you can ...
